Perforce Software Offers On Demand Version

Perforce Software and Assembla announce the availability of an on demand version of Perforce Software Version Management that is integrated with team tools from Assembla.

Perforce on Demand, which combines enterprise-grade versioning with collaboration tools from Assembla, allows development teams to work together more effectively and accelerate Agile projects. The software, which is hosted by Assembla, is free for up to 20 users on Assembla’s website.

According to the announcement, Perforce on Demand allows users to get a new depot in seconds, with triple-redundant backup. They can immediately invite other colleagues by email and don’t need to wait for an administrator to authorize or configure repositories or users.

Version 1.9.5 of Codestriker, a Web application that supports code reviewing by geographically distributed teams of developers has just been released. The new version offers sophisticated syntax highlighting.

How do you make sure the new laptop you just bought is populated with copies of all the Git repositories you use? Easy. By using a meta repository to maintain a list of projects and Perl scripts to automate discovery and cloning.
